The Drazin spectrum of tensor product of Banach algebra elements and elementary operators

Abstract

Given unital Banach algebras $A$ and $B$ and elements $a\in A$ and $b\in B$, the Drazin spectrun of $a\otimes b\in A\overline{\otimes }B$ will be fully characterized, where $A\overline{\otimes }B$ is a Banach algebra that is the completion of $A\otimes B$ with respect to a uniform crossnorm. To this end, however, first the isolated points of the spectrum of $a\otimes b\in A\overline{\otimes }B$ need to be characterized. On the other hand, given Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ and Banach space operators $S\in L(X)$ and $T\in L(Y)$, using similar arguments the Drazin spectrum of ${\tau }_{ST}\in L(L(Y,X))$, the elementary operator defined by $S$ and $T$, will be fully characterized.
